Inner Sunset, SF 94122 1736038 6 units · 3 fl · 1908

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 1325-1331 Lincoln Way rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

Built 1908
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The building at 1325-1331 Lincoln Way is a three-story, six-unit multi-family residential structure located in the Inner Sunset neighborhood, owned by the Robertson Family Trust and constructed in 1908. The property's maintenance and safety record shows several significant infrastructure upgrades and repairs over the past decades, including a $12,000 reroofing project completed in 2022, replacement of three hazardous sub-panels in 2017, conversion to underground electrical service in 2004, and repair of dry rot damage in the basement in 1986. While the building has undergone regular routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services, two notable concerns emerged in 2016: an active mold and ventilation complaint that was later marked as "Not Active," and a routine inspection that remains listed as "Active."

Recent maintenance and safety history demonstrates ongoing attention to building systems, though some issues appear to persist or have required multiple interventions. A 1994 roofing project has since expired, and there was a street space permit issued in 2007. The property has generated multiple 311 calls in recent years, with the most recent activity between 2023-2024 primarily related to street cleaning, garbage, and sidewalk maintenance issues. Specifically, there have been recurring reports of loose garbage and debris, with six such incidents recorded between January 2024 and December 2024, and two sidewalk maintenance reports in 2022 (pavement defect) and October 2022 (lifted sidewalk) that were either resolved or found no condition requiring attention. The building's historical permits and repairs suggest regular maintenance of critical systems, though the presence of documented mold and ventilation issues from 2016 may warrant particular attention when considering resident comfort and air quality conditions.

Risk rating

How 1325-1331 Lincoln Way's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
14thpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 1284 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.
